Hello. I just bought a DAT machine, and I want to connect it to my soundcard. The ting is that my Digital in/out on the soundcard is a phono plug, and the Digital in/out on my DAT is XLR or optical. How do I connect this, and what cables do I need?

Thanks for your answers. I`ll shure try them out!:)

Hello, I`m mixing a rock song, with lots of guitars, and I want the drums to sound sharp and heavy. Anybody got some compression/effect tips on how to achive this?

Hello, I try to put together a homestudio, and everybody tell me I need a DAT machine. I`m new to homerecording, so can anybody please tell me why I need a DAT?

Thanks for listening. I have no idea of where that "fffffffff" comes from. It`s not on the cd or wav file... When I play it, it`s at the end too. Thanks for your time!! Frankie

Hmmm Very interesting. The mix is brilliant!! Only thing that comes to my mind, is that perhaps the reverb on the lead vocal is a little too much. Then again I could be fooled by the MP3 file (lo-fi) Jolly Good. Frankie

I got my first song on the net some weeks ago. Here`s a new one. I do belive this is a bloody good song. (if I dare say so myself ;) ) Please someone listen and tell me if I`m wrong. Both songs are commercial. Here`s the link; http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/158/l_e_v_i.html Frankie

Thanks pglewis. I get the same hiccups when I'm playing it, so it has to be the MP3. (i'm using music match) Thanks again for your time! Frankie

thanks for listening folks. After sleepless nights in the studio, it's really great to get some feedback. Thanks a lot! :) Frankie

A couple of weeks ago, I was asking a lot of questions in the newbie section, as a was new to homerecording. No I finally got my first song ready, and its located at http://artists.mp3s.com/artists/158/l_e_v_i.html I would really appreciate if someone would listen and give me some feedback. I...

About a year ago I found a cool site on the net wich showed where the different instruments should sit in a mix, so they're not stepping on each other. It explained the frequencies of each instrument and how to use the EQ to get it right where it should be. Problem is I've lost the site and...

Thanks everybody for helpfull tips! I hope to have a final mix out on the net soon, for you all to judge. Frankie

Hello. Try out "The Mix" It covers a lot of recording tips with a help file, and also a cd with demos and samples for you to use. Works for me :) Frankie

Hi there Green Hornet. recording the bass on a seperate track seems like a good idea. I'll try it! Do you use much compressor on the bass? If so, how much ratio? Frankie

Maybe this questions have been covered before but here's the thing; The bass always seem to take up a lot of space in the mix. The music style I do is mainly pop, so I want it in there doing what it should, but not take all the space. So what is the thing to do here?? A lot of compression or EQ...

Ok I see. I just changed from jacks to XLR and tried the balanced output, and it sounds better (at least that's what I like to think.. ;)) I use really short cables so I quess it's not a big deal anyway. Thanks for helping me sorting it out!! Frankie

So, I got this question for you pros. I got balanced cabels from my speakers to the amp. And balanced from the amp to my mixer, but then I realized that my mixer's balanced output is XLR and not jack...,so for now I'm using the unbalanced output. Does this make a lot of difference??? What is...

I have tied to update ma Cubase version 3.5 VST (Producer Pac)with the download from Steinberg homepage. But when i try to install it it comes up with a error message "wrong ID number" I've e-mailed Steinberg about it, but haven't got a reply. Can anybody help? Frankie

Thanks for the help. I think I'll go for absolute zero. I also buy a Servo 170 Power amp 2x85 Watts for the speakers. It looks like this is a good deal. I got a rather small home studio and it will be interesting to find out what it sounds like. I'll keep you posted. :) Frankie

Thanks!! I tried it out, and it worked pretty good. Frankie
